The owner is the most fair employer Ii have ever had!! She is kind to personal situations. She will help you out any way she can. I make really, really good money working for her. She is looking for more editors, as the company is growing a great deal. If you want more info, please feel free to contact me at MaryC_RI285@msn.com.

Work for Shapin and absolutely HAPPY about it!!
Finally found my place.
I currently work for them, and absolutely love them!
Pay is direct deposit and always on time. The account I'm on is relatively easy, although there are a few ESLs. I've been there 6 months now, and am very happy.
I work there and absolutely love it. You
set your schedule each week in 2-hour blocks each day. You have a minimum production per day you have to do and you need to work sometime within the blocks of time you schedule yourself.
I love working for Shapin!!!!
Well, i have been with Shapin for 2 1/2 months and absolutely love it. I have never seen so much communication. If you think that is a bad thing, you need to work for a company with no communication. There is always work, in fact I am never caught up anymore, since I recently started QAing as well as transcribing. Maybe I got your job, Thanks for doing such a sucky job, so I got the promotion. Just out of curiosity, where do you work now and what are you getting paid?
Absolutely love my job! nm

I absolutely love them...sm
I have worked for them almost 2 years and have been totally and completely happy. They treat you great. The account I work on is internet based with an excellent platform using MS Word. I would highly recommend this company.
I absolutely love your saying of
you'd rather herd cats! I have 3 of my own and I can only imagine that fiasco in my mind. They march to their own drum, wouldnt come to you when you call them for nothing, aloof, oh, how I love my furries.
Been there for 4 years and absolutely love it! sm
Good accounts, pay on time via direct deposit, higher pay than most, smaller company where people still know you by name and truly care. As for the platform, you type in Bayscribe and send your reports in live via the web site. Some accounts are converting to wav files, and some are still via C-phone and you have to pay your own long distance.
Of course, as with all companies, one man's paradise is another man's hell, so I am sure there are those who will disagree with me. If I can answer anymore questions, fee free to ask.
Good luck! 
I absolutely LOVE Inscribe
Everything is so user friendly, and I love the fact that you can see what jobs are coming up and you can print them, so you know how much work there is actually on the system and how much you have produced. It is the BEST that I have seen out there!! Hope that helps.
I absolutely love Allscripts...
I've used quite a few platforms and Allscripts is just about my favorite. MS Word-based, and the count on the account I was on (no headers/footers) was accurate with Word's count. If the authors/account use markers the demographics fill in quickly; the environment is very clean and efficient, simple and easy to understand, moving really smoothly from one job to the next with little-to-no fuss. Get in and out of the program very quickly, too. I think you will love it! 
Absolutely love my job at Meridian.

I absolutely love your answer (sm)
I, like you, have read some of the newbie's questions and if a person thinks VR can train a newbie, then apparently they don’t know 1 thing about VR. I have worked in this field since 1973 and as matured as I am, you have to be on your toes all the time whether straight or VR and it is not a teaching machine. Why people on here get the idea that being slower, having lack of experience in MTing or whatever better qualifies them to work on VR, I have no clue where that comes from.
I absolutely love it and make lots of $$$ on it. sm
Been working with eScription for about 6 years now and absolutely love it. Would not want to go back to straight transcription ever.
I also make great money with it ~ at least $50 an hour, consistently.
I count my blessings every day!
absolutely love it thus far!!!! been through 3 lately and finally hope i can stay put and am alread

Didn't work for Shapin......

Shapin is a SUPER company to work for
If anyone would like to email me for more infomation, please feel free to do so! Shapin is the very best company I have ever worked for!
Does anyone know if Shapin requires weekend work? Thanks! NM
As a shift lead I made $15 an hour, but did QA plus lead duties...
I also worked terrible hours with no differential for them. I think it just matters on the company.
I work FT for KS and PT for another company too. My lead sm
knows this, as does the coordinator. It is OK.
You need to talk to your lead or to HR because there is work out there. sm
The account I have been on for 4 years has been slow but they rearranged us all so that everyone has enough work and 2 people were put on other accounts. They will work with you; you just need to talk to them.
If you are getting fussed qat by QA, perhaps there is work but there is something else going on. If you are not meeting 98% or better accuracy, they will cut your workload. Find out if that is the problem and maybe ask for a different account if the one you are on is too difficult. They have plenty, unlike most of the companies you read about here. Oh, and they have not cut our rates, lost accounts and have a few new ones. Glad I picked KS over WMX and plan on staying!
Advice: Go over your lead. Go to the next person up. There is work there. sm
I would call the office and talk to Karyn or Becky. Your lead might not be conveying the message for some reason. Sometimes they are too busy, sometimes they don't want to share someone. Just call. That's the only way to make it happen, and you will be glad you did!
I'd ask your team lead. She would know but I will tell you that we're already out of work toda
guess everyone wanted the bonus. I find it sad that we'll get back logged because no one wants to work a regular schedule, yet come a holiday bonus, and everyone is obviously working. It's too bad we couldnt have that bonus rate as a standard. You'd see a lot more motivated people in this business. Most of us are burned out on pounding the keyboard all day and gain so little. I guess so much for a holiday bonus when there is no work. Kind of defeats the purpose..Oh well...I'm vented for today.
Try Keystrokes for ortho. Lots of work. The lead is the best I have ever had. sm
I have two doctors that I am responsible for and love having them assigned because I know what they are going to say before they say it. She is a stickler for reliability and quality, but if you are a good MT, you will love it!
Personally, I prefer to be left alone to work. I hear from my lead when I need her and sm
one or two other times a month, never excessive like a certain company that is rah-rah'd on here. No problem with communication in the two years I have been with them!
Gheesh! Some people have something to complain about no matter what, surprised if even a Keystroke's employee. It is easy to form an opinion when only a handful of employees post here.
Absolutely not! I work for the best MTSO. I am have been so blessed to work for the small company I
I will share this about the MTSO I work for. I called her late last Wednesday night after Church and told her I was compelled to help out with Hurricaine Katrina in some way and an opportunity arose for a small group from my Church to go to Louisianna this coming week. Would she be able to cover my work. She told me no problem without any hesitation and even donated money for the trip.
And I am sure there are plenty of good companies out there to work for. To compare us to migrant workers is just not right.
Absolutely awesome awesome platform. I love it.
I believe the concensus is you either love it or hate it. I personally love it and make lots of money.
Absolutely - always work available. nm

Currently work there and absolutely one
of the best jobs I have had as an MT. They are flexible with their time, have holiday PTO and regular PTO. Major plus, only 1 account. I know there are some negative posts around about them, but everyone in my group is respectful and the communication is great.
There is absolutely no work right know, so I don't
think they'll be hiring right now.
Absolutely. It is SE status - you can work as much as you want.
Statutory employee status - make as much money as you want with no limitations. Plenty of work all of the time!
Good luck!
Absolutely positive. I work as an SE for
are withheld, only Social Security and Medicare taxes.
I would ABSOLUTELY NOT work for a company that is associated with her. nm
? for any lead at Keystrokes. What does a lead do?
Do they do QA, mentor, or ....?
You can e-mail me privately if you like.
Some of us choose neither to lead, nor be lead!
I guess I just don't have that 'pack mentality'.
You can believe those on this board saying NO WORK at Transtech ! Absolutely true !!
Getting worse and worse every day. They are going to VR at a VERY FAST PACE, which pays so little you cannot survive on the money UNLESS you work 60 hours a week OR are one of the supe's fav's that get the better dictators.
There is always an excuse by TT as to the low work, but remember that doesn't pay our creditors. Work disappears in large chunks when were at getting almost out of TAT (if ever) so it is going somewhere.
TT is turning out to be like every other MT company out there - more and more executives/supervisors to pay and not a single penny raise for the MT -- much less provide work for the MT's on a consistent basis -- not near consistent basis.
Absolutely, sends work to India, Phillipines...sm
She's something alright, sending work offshore instead of paying someone in the US a workable wage. Name of company is Another Medical Must...owned by Renee Lella....look her up on Google and see how that's worked for her in the past, with a major leak of patient records due to dealing with the Indian company and their MTs. She trains her MTs most of the time using her cell phone in the car while doing errands or picking up kids...horrible. Bad, bad experience, never again. She looks at this board occasionally and still posts for job openings once in a while, but always under an alias or different name, sometimes maria...sometimes another name. Shifty.
Between the outsourcing and overhiring, there is absolutely no work for anyone/anything American, pe
nm
Absolutely - I work off FTP and have a 24-hour window to return files.
I work my own schedule daily and keep my TAT. It is that simple. No big deal. I download my files late in the evening, transcribe the next day and upload them late in the evening.
Whatever works!
I'll love to know who you work for. I also work every weekend with no extra pay.
It'd be nice to get paid for all the nights and weekends I work.
Love, love, love TransTech! Not overhiring, just growing like crazy!

Spheris has work and they would love to have you work

I would love to work for DRC (sm)
but their family insurance coverage is over $900 per month! I can't afford to pay half of my salary for insurance. I wish they had a cheaper insurance plan.
I LOVE it this way! I get my work at 6 am and have
until 6 am the next day to return it completed. I love it! It's the greatest thing in the world. Some days, I type all morning and I'm done by noon, some days I have things to do so I type in the evening - works out great, AND, I get paid much higher doing it this way!
I work for them...love it!

I work for DSG..love it there.
I'm not an editor, but the staff, editors and MTs are great to work with. I am happy there.

I work there and love it
I have been an SPI/CyMed employee for a year now and I love it there. The platform that they use is called Chartnet and it is sooooo easy to use. I have a great account that I have been on for the entire year that I have been there and I love it. I make excellent money there. My manager is very friendly and helpful. They do also have benefits, but I don't know too much about them since I have never needed to get them.
I work for them and love them.
Great place to work.
love VR work
Try Precyse Solutions. I work for them and do VR and absolutely love it. Have done it for quite awhile and feel I am more productive than straight typing. Also gives hands a break. Their platform rm is wonderful as well. Good luck!
I work for WMX, love it ...
Granted, I've only been there for a few weeks, but so far I love it. The people are absolutely great, the platform is easy, and I really like the 12-hour window to get my work done in. My primary is 30-50% ESL, but I'm finding out that it's actually much less than that, unless I'm really getting lucky, which is always a possibility. It seems like overall it would balance out, though, to get my fair share of it. I don't have any complaints at all about WMX. Love their incentive tier platform, also. You get paid incentive on ALL work done, not just work done ABOVE the incentive base.
I would LOVE to work at FN!
I am from South Carolina and know the new account they are obtaining very well. I have called, tested (they emailed me back and said I passed) and emailed and have not heard anything. This would be a dream account for me as I have worked for many of the doctors on this account in the past. Any advice?
would love to go to work..sm
I would love to go to work for this company. I put in my resume, but haven't heard anything. Do you know how long it takes for them to respond?
